PLOT: The charismatic swordsman-poet helps another woo the woman he loves in this straightforward version of the play._IMDb

STORYLINE:

01) France, 1640: Cyrano, the charismatic swordsman-poet with the absurd nose, hopelessly loves the beauteous Roxane; she, in turn, confesses to Cyrano her love for the handsome but tongue-tied Christian. The chivalrous Cyrano sets up with Christian an innocent deception, with tragic results. Much cut from the play, but dialogue not rewritten. —IMDb by Rod Crawford

02) Poet, romantic and sword fighter Cyrano de Bergerac loves the beautiful Roxane, but although he is proud enough of his bulbous proboscis that he regularly duels those who dare mock it, he fears she could never love a man with such an enormous nose. When he learns that she loves the handsome guardsman Christian, Cyrano provides the tongue-tied young man with the words of love and devotion he wishes he could say to Roxanne himself.—IMDb by Jwelch5742

03) A man of many traits and talents, Cyrano de Bergerac, a 17th-century Gascon swordsman, poet, and philosopher, is highly efficient with both his sword and his tongue. Moreover, he also happens to own the largest nose in Paris. Secretly head-over-heels in love with beautiful Roxane, Cyrano is shocked to discover that she has fallen for the handsome but shallow recruit to the Cadets de Gascogne, Christian de Neuvillette. As a result, convinced that he is no match for the handsome but tongue-tied suitor, Cyrano steps aside and decides to pen Christian's love letters to help him woo Roxane. Isn't this selfless act of kindness the greatest declaration of love? —IMDb by Nick Riganass
